Alberto Moreno Signs for Liverpool

Liverpool have confirmed the signing of Spanish full-back Alberto Moreno from Sevilla.

The 22 year old becomes the club's eighth signing of the summer after completing a reported £12m move to Anfield following weeks of negotiations between the two clubs.

Moreno was part of the Sevilla side that won the Europa League last season and was initially named in Spain's 30-man provisional World Cup squad before missing out on a place in the main party.

Though Moreno has not been registered in time to feature for Liverpool in their Premier League opener against Southampton on Sunday, he has revealed how he sought advice from former Spain-based Reds players Xabi Alonso and Pepe Reina before moving to Merseyside.
